Zhilong Hong updated FLINK-23354:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently a TaskExecutor uses BlobCache to cache the blobs transported from 
JobManager. The caches are the local file stored on the TaskExecutor. The blob 
cache will not be cleaned up until one hour after the related job is finished. 
In FLINK-23218, we are going to distribute the cached ShuffleDescriptors via 
blob. When large amount of failovers happen, there will be a lot of cache 
stored on local disk. The blob cache will occupy large amount of disk space. In 
extreme cases, the blob would blow up the disk space.

So we need to add a limit size for the ShuffleDescriptors stored in 
PermanentBlobCache on TaskExecutor, as described in the comments of 
FLINK-23218. The main idea is to add a size limit and and delete the blobs in 
LRU order if the size limit is exceeded. Before a blob item is cached, 
TaskExecutor will firstly check the overall size of cache. If the overall size 
exceeds the limit, the blob will be deleted in LRU order until the limit is not 
exceeded anymore. For the blob cache that is deleted, if it is used afterwards, 
it will be downloaded from the HA or the blob server again.

The default value of the size limit for the ShuffleDescriptors in 
PermanentBlobCache on TaskExecutor will be 100 MiB.

Currently a TaskExecutor uses BlobCache to cache the blobs transported from

At present, JobInformation and TaskInformation are transported via blob. If a 
lot of jobs are submitted, the blob cache will occupy large amount of disk 
space. In FLINK-23218, we are going to distribute the cached ShuffleDescriptors 
via blob. When large amount of failovers happen, there will be a lot of cache

The default value of the size limit of the blob cache on TaskExecutor will be 
10GiB.
